a flatlander learns about parallel transport

It's an evening like any other, the fog slowly growing darker as A Peg arrives back home from a lecture, looking to grab a book and unwind in bed.

For the most part, A Peg is not a very spiritual person, his interest in three dimensions beginning and ending in the abstract. He's read Flatland before but mostly dismissed it as the ramblings of a madman, a very forward-thinking one in terms of mathematics, but a madman nonetheless, assuming it isn't a full fabrication. Instead, his idiosyncracies take on a very different flavor: he spends his time pondering square roots of negative numbers and power series.

Tonight's New Year's Eve, and not just any New Year's Eve, it's 2999 and soon to be 3000 in a few hours. The whole city is celebrating, the streets crowded and noisy. For A Peg though, it's like any other night, the fog slowly growing darker as A Peg lays in bed, unwinding with a mystery novel.
